Title: Weed killer
IPC: A01M15/00
Filed: 1989-08-18
Granted: 1992-06-17
Abstract: The invention indicates a weed killer, in which the emerging hot air is generated by an electrically heated blower (4) and a fuel (15) such as e.g. brown coal, charcoal or hard coal. The device for generating the hot air flow comprises a fuel reservoir (6) and a hot air duct (7) which come together in a combustion chamber (8) which has an outlet opening (16) for the outlet of the hot air flow. The fuel reservoir (6) has in the transition to the combustion chamber (8) a fuel retention device (14), with which the fuel (15) is held in such a manner that a part of the fuel (15) lies in the combustion chamber (8) and in the hot air flow of the electrically heated blower (4). The hot air duct (7) is connected to the blower (4) so that, when the fuel (15) is blown onto with the hot air, the fuel ignites and hot air is thus produced which has a considerably higher temperature. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The connection of silicon nitride joint faces by hot pressing with interpositioning of silicon-containing layers which have more than the stoichiometric amount of nitrogen and less than the stoichiometric amount of nitrogen necessary for the formation of Si3N4 is expediently effected by providing a layered arrangement of two layers which have less than the stoichiometric amount of nitrogen, of the composition SiNx where 1.3 > x >/= 0 along the joint faces and an interposed layer with more than the stoichiometric amount of nitrogen, of the composition SiNx where x > 1.33, these layers essentially adding up to Si3N4. In particular, the outer layers with less than the stoichiometric amount of nitrogen have a composition of Si to SiN1.0. In a layered arrangement of this type, a layer with less than the stoichiometric amount of nitrogen which is easier to wet adjoins each of the joint faces, so that the overall strength achieved for the joint is increased.

Abstract: Selon un procédé de représentation photométrique de la lumière d'un projecteur que l'on veut contrôler, on effectue premièrement une prise de vue d'une scène réelle statique ou mobile au moyen d'un projecteur d'analyse. Lors de la reproduction de la scène, la luminosité est corrigée localement. Les performances de différents projecteurs à contrôler, dont seules les données phototechniques doivent être calculées ou mesurées, sont comparables dans des conditions identiques et proches de la réalité. Selon un premier mode de réalisation, on effectue une prise de vue photographique de la scène et on en corrige la luminosité lors de la reproduction ultérieure au moyen d'un cache à taux de transmission localement variable. Selon un autre mode de réalisation, la luminosité d'une scène filmée par une caméra vidéo est localement corrigée, lors de la reproduction, par multiplication par un facteur (k (x,y)).

Title: A method of, and appartus for, breaking an optical fiber
IPC: C03B37/16
Filed: 1989-08-16
Granted: 1993-03-31
Abstract: Apparatus for breaking an optical fiber comprises fiber gripping units (2 and 4) each comprising a rigid block (6 or 6') having adhered thereto a strip (8 or 8') of a resilient material, for example a synthetic felt, the blocks (6 and 6') being relatively movable between an open position to receive an optical fiber (OF) between the resilient strips (8 and 8') and a closed position to clamp the fiber (OF) between the strips (8 and 8'). A fiber holder (9) is provided for applying a pulling force (P1) to the fiber (OF) to cause it to slide between the resilient strips (8 and 8') in the closed position of the blocks (6 and 6'). Before being inserted between the strips (8 and 8'), the fiber is formed with a V-shaped notch (N) at which the fiber is to be broken. The strips (8 and 8'), are so configured that as the fiber (OF) slides between the strips (8 and 8') it is first bent about the notch (N), after which the direction of bending of the fiber (OF) is reversed so that fiber (OF) is broken at the notch (N) under the pulling force (P1) applied to the fiber (OF) by the fiber holder (9). The one severed end face of the fiber (OF) is then pulled away from the other (8 and 8') by the fiber holder (9).

Abstract: Photocurable compositions comprising a photocurable resin produced by reacting from 0.4 to 0.9 equivalents of acrylic acid with 1.0 equivalents of a cresyl novolak-type epoxy resin and thereafter reacting the product with a dicarboxylic acid anhydride, the reaction of the acrylic acid with the cresol novolak-type epoxy resin having been catalysed in the absence of an amine or phosphine catalyst. The absence of an amine or phosphine catalyst avoids gelling, particularly at reactant ratios where gelling has been encountered hitherto. The compositions can be made one-pack, and they can be cured without the addition of further polymerisable components.

Abstract: Le procédé décrit sert à empêcher la projection erronée d'un faisceau laser pour améliorer la sécurité du robot à laser. Lors de la fermeture du circuit source d'alimentation du robot à laser, un processeur contenu dans l'unité de commande (10) du robot compare une valeur prédéterminée avec un angle (δ) compris entre un plan horizontal (plan XY) et un axe (8a) d'un bec de projection de laser (8), calculé sur la base d'angles d'articulation (W, U, r, β) (S1 à S3). Lorsque l'angle (δ) du bec de projection de laser est inférieur à une valeur prédéterminée, un signal de blocage mutuel émis vers l'oscillateur laser (30) est mis à une valeur propre à fermer la source d'alimentation pour l'oscillateur laser, empêchant ainsi celui-ci de poursuivre l'oscillation laser (S5). Il en résulte que toute projection erronée du faisceau laser due à un programme d'exploitation inapproprié du robot ou à une erreur de manipulation de l'opérateur est empêchée, protégeant ainsi l'équipement périphérique de tout endommagement et l'opérateur de tout risque de blessure.

Abstract: The centreboard for windsurfing boards, which has been developed with the aim of improving the sailing characteristics, has a centreboard box (4) let into the sailboard (1), in which box a centreboard (5), which can be inserted from above and has a handle (6) projecting above the board upper side, is pivotably mounted. On the upper part (11) of the centreboard, there are formed on an outer journal (12) in the region of the centreboard upper edge (13) and, offset in relation to this journal, an inner journal (14). The journals (12, 14) are arranged at a distance (a) from one another in the longitudinal direction of the centreboard (5) and at a distance (b) from one another in the transverse direction of the centreboard (5) on one side of the upper part of the centreboard. There can be inserted into one side wall (16) of the centreboard box (4) a replaceable insert plate (17) with two guide and bearing grooves (18, 19) of curved design for receiving the journals (12, 14), on which guide rollers (15) are located. The two-point pivot bearing makes possible, in comparison to conventional centreboards, a displacement of the handle (6) into a position (6a) shifted towards the rear, with pivoted-in centreboard (5a), and thus a corresponding shift of the rearmost position of the mast foot (10) towards the rear. In this manner, the speed of the windsurfing board is increased during courses with the wind on the quarter.

The hindrance may also consist of catch projections (13) on the piston which engage in catch depressions (13). The hindrance may also be an upwardly sloping sealing lip. The hindrance makes valves for delivering the material superfluous and therefore permits simple, reliable and economical construction. The dispenser can be designed particularly advantageously as a filling toothbrush.
